Isabel Oliver, images for reflection and life
No full textDos soberbios espectáculos en blanco y negro, ambos de Isabel Oliver, for-
man parte de la colección del Museo de Vilafamés. El primero de ellos es
un óleo de 1990; el segundo, un collage y acrílico datado diez años más
tarde. Esta artista, ligada a la historia de nuestro singular centro artístico
–que ella misma contribuyó a forjar– ha dejado en él estas dos muestras
de un trabajo que, a lo largo de los años, ha vivido unas etapas tan diferen-
tes como ricas. Es Isabel una creadora que no se ha detenido nunca en los
distintos hallazgos afortunados que han ido jalonando su trayectoria. Muy
por el contrario, ha sabido trabajar partiendo de diferentes presupuestos,
imágenes e ideas, que la han hecho dueña de una historia perfilada a través
de unas obras que, eso sí, tienen un elemento común: el principio reflexivo
que está en el germen de su creación y la correspondiente respuesta igual-
mente reflexiva que suscita en quienes las observan
The British ‘Bluesman’ Paul Oliver and the Nature of Transatlantic Blues Scholarship
No full textRecent revisionist studies have argued that much of what is known about music known as the blues’ has been 'invented' by the writing of enthusiasts far removed from the African American culture that created the music. Elijah Wald and Marybeth Hamilton in particular have attempted to sift through the clouds of romanticism, and tried to unveil more empirical histories that were previously obscured by the fallacious genre distinctions conjured up during the 1960s blues revival. While this revisionist scholarship has shed light on some previously ignored historical facts, writers have tended to concentrate on the romanticism of blues writing strictly from an American perspective, failing to acknowledge the genesis and influence of transatlantic scholarship, and therefore ignoring the work of the most prolific and influential blues scholar of the twentieth century, British writer Paul Oliver. By examining the core of Oliver’s research and writing during the 1950s and 1960s, this study aims to place Oliver in his rightful place at the centre of blues historiography. His scholarship allows a more detailed appreciation of the manner in which the blues was studied, through lyrics, recordings, oral histories, photography and African American literature. These historical sources were interpreted in accordance with the author’s attitudes to the commercial popular music, which allowed the ‘reconstruction’ of an African American ‘folk’ culture in which the blues became the antithesis of pop. Importantly, this study seeks to transcend dominant discourses of national cultural ownership or ethnocentrism, and demonstrate that representations of African American music and culture were constructed within a transatlantic context. The blues is music with roots in the African American experience within the United States; however, as Paul Oliver’s writing shows, its reception and representation were not limited by the same national, cultural or racial boundaries
